Liked: It was ok.

Disliked: There was a cockroach in the bathroom, the staff did not know much about the island. They mere looked on the internet and then told you want it said. This resulted in wrong directions and me wasting hours.

Liked: The staff really made this hostel for me, they were polite and helpful. I asked so many annoying questions everyday and they always helped me! Great rooms, comfy bed and good breakfast!

Disliked: I didn't appreciate popping back to the hostel to grab something and finding the cleaners had left my dorm door wide open for anyone to go in and take something. Reading lights would be good, and a way to vent the bathrooms, but I'm sure they'll come with time.

Liked: Friendly staff and reasonable location (around 20 min journey to main bus station to give access to local buses around the island). Maps of the island with main bus routes were in reception which was useful.

Disliked: The towels smell foisty as if they had been sitting damp in a pile before they were dried. IT was not all of them, but the first set, one of four smelled bad and of the second set we asked for two four smelled. Also, there is no house keeping (even for the private rooms) although we only stayed for 5 nights and it did not bother us, but if staying longer, it may bea problem.
There were photos of typical dishes (such as horse meet and pheasant) on the walls but the staff could not advise where you could buy them.
The hostel had a BBQ but we were not allowed to use it.

Liked: Seemed a good value, very friendly staff. But it was 13000/night, so that's what i got.

Disliked: The bathroom in my 4-bed girl's dorm room was grimy and stuffy. No window or fan, so it was always wet in there, not to mention the toilet and bathtub could have used a good scrub (i.e. visible scum...yuck). Everything else was fine.

Jude Lawrence

Liked: Relatively easy to get to. Staff were nice and friendly and beds were pretty comfy.

Disliked: Just a bit tired and dated looking. There's not much of a communal area - it doesn't take many people to fill it so on a busy day you'd struggle. Although the staff are very nice, friendly and helpful, their advice on how to get anywhere/do anything involves either hiring a car or getting a taxi neither of which are practical or affordable for a backpacker. Also really not necessary as the bus station is an easy 25 min walk and from there you can get pretty much anywhere on the island. If you can manage a 10 min walk round the corner you can also save 3000 won on a taxi to the airport by getting a bus.

The property's response is...

Thank you for your kind advice , Sean

Liked: It's near the sea...and the airport!

Disliked: The stated one egg per person policy at breakfast seemed a little unnecessary...

Liked: Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay while in Jeju. Great location for food lovers as the black pork market and seafood port is nearby. Tarshya the hostel manager was helpful, friendly and made our stay extremely pleasant and memorable. Highly recommend this place to groups of friends. Thank you for making our Jeju experience a happy one unni <3

Disliked: The only bad thing about this property is having to leave it!

Liked: The people at the counter were very helpful. They couldn´t find our reservation and needed a few minutes to deal with the problem and although in the end they never found any record of it they still checked us in and had no problem charging us the agreed upon price with hostelbookers

Disliked: The air conditioner unit in the room is very loud and it was difficult to sleep with it on yet to hot to turn off.

Liked: Friendly staff, great location near to the main shopping streets. ensuite bathrooms and free laundry. Feels lovely and clean, kitchen with a gas stove which is definitely hard to find in some places in Korea. I would definitely stay again.

Disliked: There were no lockers, although they had a storage room to leave your bag. However on the day I left they were in the process of getting lockers delivered so that is good.

Liked: The hostel is in an awesome area. It makes a perfect first or last destination as its super close to the airport and Jeju being Jeju made it easy to travel round area. The staff were friendly and were very helpful! They even booked a taxi tour for us and we could set all the itinerary.

Disliked: We were on the 4th floor...many stairs for a tiered traveller! Only flaw to the atmosphere was the unwelcoming carpeting laid down everywhere. It was pretty filthy but the bedroom itself was nice.

Liked: When i made my booking, there were no comments and so I was a little worried. But I was pleasantly surprised. This is a brand new and very clean facility. The girls at reception spread good English and are very helpful with maps and directions. Every room has an attached bath. Filtered water on every floor is very nice. They also offer free laundry, even though I didn't use it. The roof is very nice. Free breakfast - coffee and peanut butter and jelly toast. Located in a nice part of town, right across the main road from e-mart.

Disliked: You have to buy your own toilet paper. Bus services in Jeju is not very good.
